"The main words I can say about Olympus is dependable, meticulous, and reasonable. This company aims to please and is not afraid of hard work ! I feel like they went above and beyond to finish the work in a timely manner. I was impressed that not only did they lay sod, but went back and placed tiny patches of grass to make sure there were no bare spots at all in between the squares. Very meticulous! The sand stone walkways and patios are perfect! I highly recommend them. They will always be the first and only company I call for landscaping."

"They understood what I needed and wanted and did a fantastic job in half a day. They chopped down a big ugly monster bush/tree that was annoying me for years, cleaned out the planters around the porch that had pesky junk plants that were difficult for me to get rid of and removed yet more nasty plants that were hard to deal with beside the house and garage. They even edged the sidewalks and driveway and made everything look perfect. They're awesome hardworking fellas and I highly recommend you get their help on any projects."

Arborists questions, answered by experts

Depending on the severity of the damage, a tree might continue healing for years after a split or a break. Saplings can usually bounce back in the spring in one or two seasons, but larger trees might take a few years to regain their former strength. If your tree is showing strong growth and is not dropping limbs, you can consider it healed after the first two seasons.

The amount of time it takes for a tree trunk to rot depends on several factors, including the tree’s size, species, and environmental conditions. It can take anywhere from a few years to several decades for a tree’s trunk to rot. A tree stump, on the other hand, can take up to 10 years to disappear after it’s decayed naturally.

For Bradford pears, damage from storms is common, and if the trunk splits, it can pose a danger to people and surrounding structures. The best thing to do in that instance is to have the tree removed. If there’s only minor damage to the branches, pruning away the damaged parts is the first order of business. You may also want to consult a professional arborist to make sure the tree is healthy.

Yes, tree roots can regenerate after they’re pruned or cut. In fact, trimming can stimulate new growth, especially in healthy trees. The tree’s roots can still grow back even after a tree is cut down, (and learning how to get rid of regrowing tree roots is a separate feat). Still, if you don’t wish to harm a tree, pruning the roots should be done with extreme care, and ideally by a professional.

The shepherd’s tree, native to the Kalahari Desert in Africa, holds the record for the deepest known tree roots at over 230 feet deep. Some African communities refer to it as the “Tree of Life” since it provides food, shade, and medicinal properties to the surrounding community.
